Hi! We're at Peabody's, home of free wi-fi, really crappy lattes, and (we think) karaoke later on.Here's the bullets:
Woke up this morning to BRILLIANT SUNSHINE! It was glorious - literally, not a cloud in the sky ... took a drive out to College of the Desert to check out the cc situation down here. It was nice, and there happened to be Street Fair going on on campus, so we hung out there for a while ... continued out into Coachella Valley, and I think we passed through five of the nine "Desert Cities" that have sprung up since the likes of Bing Crosby and Frank Sinatra paved the way for development of the area. I think I liked Rancho Mirage (former home of Gerald Ford) the best ... that observation might mean something since CoD has a tenure-track opening for an English Instructor ... picked up some Trader Joe's salads for lunch and spent the WARM AND SUNNY afternoon lounging by the pool ... haven't done much of the schoolwork that I brought, but manged to read a few pages of Aristotle between naps ... NatDog the catsitter called, letting Momma Otis know her boys are fine ... had a nice dinner at an all-vegan restaurant, Native Foods ... and here we are.
